Knitting Crew!

Here we can keep track of all the nice stuff Maven is gonna make us <3

[Gemmie 142]

This is awesome.

I have to say, it does take me about 16.8 weeks to knit a simple scarf if the needles/yarn is small, so it would be more like giving Lisa Jr. a Christmas present.

But I look forward to seeing Maven make a cute hat!

Oh #######, I wanted to say

'and for Gemmie to keep us updated on progressing from scarves to hats'

I should pm a mod or something.

[Gemmie 142]

That's OK, I haven't picked up a knitting needle since Christmas.

I do have some though, so maybe I should give it a shot while I'm unemployed.. how hard can it be, right?

If you want tips on some easy things to make, Gemmie, let me know!

I'm sure I can find a very easy pattern for you, Lisa. What do you know already about knitting? Can you knit and purl, or just knit?

Well, this weekend I will come up with some great YouTube videos for you. Also, try popping into a Michael's or Jo-Ann, or your local yarn shop to see if they have classes. It's easy to learn and totally addictive.

I felt inspired to finish the blanket I started crocheting 3 years ago... so I found some groups on meetup.com. Maybe I'll even go.

Do it!!! I met three of my best friends out here at a meetup knitting group. They're like my sisters now.

I so need to learn how to crochet. I'm lazy. I got a $60 gift card to my local posho yarn shop and I am getting stuff this weekend to make this:

[Gemmie 142]

Yeah Lisa, it's totally addictive when you go to a yarn store. I get mine from JoAnne Fabrics but Walmart does it too. So many COLOURS. And FLUFFINESS.

The problem is, I'm so pressed for time. of course, I waste my time on the net, but that's multitasking with my work and phone calls. Maybe once I slow down with work before the baby comes, I'll check it out!!!
